Firefighters were called to Hays Walmart parking lot at 43rd Street for a semi-truck and trailer on fire at 10:29 p.m. Friday.
No one was injured in the fire.
The driver reported the truck had a tire on fire, but the driver was able to exit the truck safely.
Hays firefighters were able to extinguish the fire without incident, said Fire Captain Aaron Rome.
The truck, which appeared to be carrying hams, was blocking the southwest entrance to Walmart as of about 11 p.m. Friday.
Officials ask people to avoid the area of 43rd Street just off of Vine so crews can clean up debris.
The truck and trailer were total losses.
